Hi! I am a board certified DNP-PMHNP-BC. I started my career in traditional health practices as a Fulbright Scholar in Sochi, Russia. I presented my research at the US Embassy in Moscow.

Following this I entered and completed my doctorate at USD University of San Diego, California with a focus on digital telehealth treatment for psychiatric care. I have a passion for working with the veteran population and those seeking care outside the box. I recently completed my facilitation for psychadelic assisted therapy and have an additional practice in Denver, Colorado. I enjoy yoga, swimming and all the water sports!

Hi my name is Ana, I'm a dedicated mental health professional specializing in comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment, strategic treatment planning, and collaborative care. Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or major life transitions.

My goal is to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. Together, we can work toward helping you build resilience, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with yourself.

I provide online therapy for individuals facing life transitions, relationship struggles, grief, stress, and the challenges that naturally arise throughout life. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and down-to-earth, helping clients better understand patterns, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change in a space where they feel safe, heard, and respected.

I earned my Master’s Degree in Social Work from San Diego State University and bring more than 40 years of experience working with teens, adults, and older adults in a variety of settings, including psychiatric care, acute care hospitals, outpatient clinics, home health, skilled nursing facilities and private clinical practice. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the resilience people develop through life’s hardships, as well as the important role grief, loss, anger, and healing can play in personal growth.

I work best with clients who are ready to be honest with themselves, open to vulnerability, and motivated to make lasting changes in their lives.
